In the day's other news, the Trump administration today once again put Europe on notice,

as European leaders met to try and coalesce around a new defense plan. President Trump said

he would selectively abide by Article 5, which commits the U.S. to defend NATO countries.

And a senior official blamed Ukraine itself for the U.S. pause on military

and intelligence support ahead of a planned U.S. Ukraine meeting next week. Here's Nick Schiffin

with more. I view NATO as potentially good, but you've got to get some good thinking in NATO.

Today in the White House, President Trump questioned one of the U.S.'s most consequential commitments

to defend any NATO country that is attacked.

If they don't pay, I'm not going to defend him.

President Trump has long complained that European countries don't spend enough on defense.

Today, 23 of 32 spend at least 2% of their GDP on defense.

But President Trump doubts their commitment to common defense known as Article 5.

Europeans are trying to erase those doubts, and tonight endorsed a rearm plan,

expanding the EU's defense spending by $800 billion,

and giving governments money to invest in Ukrainian weapons,

or by American weapons to send to Ukraine.

If the whole of NATO does not increase their defense spending, then unfortunately,

possibly, Vladimir Putin would be eager to attack again because there would not be enough of a deterrent.

You made a strong signal to Ukrainian people, to Ukrainian warriors, to civilians, to all our families.
